The secret to the city is integration. Every area of the city should combine work, leisure and culture. Separate these functions and parts of the city die.

A city grows like an organism. It is a structure of living and working together a mix of functions.

The design of a city is like a strange archeology.

Every city has to deal with the problem of cars and public transport.

I have realized after all these years that a city that has a good quality of life attracts jobs. People don't want to invest in places if there is no quality of life.

Brazil will change when its cities change.

The city is not the problem; the city is the solution,

Every city in the world can be improved in less than three years.

Cities are not problems. They are solutions.
